For chronic constipation (all the time)

Take it every evening. It has to be the last thing you eat for the night. It won't work if you eat after taking it. In the morning your bowels will move normally. Do not take it every day or you can become dependent on it. However, if you want to start having normal bowel movements EVERY day, start using this product for several weeks, or months or until you get regular movements. In the meantime learn to eat a whole lot of fiber. I found the best kind is Flax seed (ground fine). I add cinnamon and a sprinkle of salt and Stevia sweetener to a jar of ground flax seed to make it very tasty. Take a tablespoonful with each meal especially when you eat things that have zero fiber in them. (Like white bread and any sweets.) Take it with a snack. Don't forget to drink water with flax to wash it down. This is just enough fiber to help regulate you. You can't use too much flax seed if you have chronic constipation. Kee the Cascara Sagrada on hand for using once in awhile, like when you travel and don't stay regular, take some along to help you get back on track again. BUT DON'T FORGET. YOU TAKE IT AT BEDTIME AND YOU CANNOT EAT FOR 8 HOURS AFTER TAKING IT OR IT WON'T WORK.
